One Great Truck (Haiku for Valentines)

Red hood sun faded

from working fields and rough roads

You're still one great truck

Blue Ice

frost so thick it sticks
snow like on my small back yard
blooming in the shade

Up in Smoke

fire in the fireplace, a photo by DRheins on Flickr.

Once wet wood now crisp
Lifeless logs alive with fire
last dance up and out

The great eagle eyes
his sky full of broken birds
land rich and rotted

Portrait of a Stranger

a face emerges

from sad strokes of an old brush

stranger, I know you

Once thick canopy
Chopped rudely down to rough stumps
Bloody sawdust mess

Zen Moment

At the coffee shop

With someone's old newspaper

I nurse my green tea
